Definition: One score or rating for the entire product or performance. When to Use: For a quick snapshot of overall status or achievement When the skill or product to be assessed is simple; when it has only a single dimension. Disadvantages: Two students can get the same score for vastly different reasons Not as good for identifying strengths and weaknesses and planning instruction Not as useful for students to use. Holistic Rubric

Steps in Development After you write your first paragraph of the highest level, circle the words in that paragraph that can vary. After you write your first paragraph of the highest level, circle the words in that paragraph that can vary. These words will be the ones that you will change as you write the less than top level performances. These words will be the ones that you will change as you write the less than top level performances.

Template for Holistic Rubrics ScoreDescription 5 Demonstrates complete understanding of the problem. All requirements of task are included in response. 4 Demonstrates considerable understanding of the problem. All requirements of task are included. 3 Demonstrates partial understanding of the problem. Most requirements of task are included. 2 Demonstrates little understanding of the problem. Many requirements of task are missing. 1 Demonstrates no understanding of the problem 0 No response/task not attempted

Analytical Rubric Definition: Several scores or ratings for a product or performance. Each score represents an important dimension or trait of the performance or product. When to Use: Planning instruction – show relative strengths and weaknesses. Teaching students the nature of a quality product or performance – they need the details. Detailed feedback to students or parents. For complicated skills, products, or performances, for which several dimensions need to be clear. Disadvantages: Scoring is slower. Takes longer to learn.

Match the assessment method with the task Match the assessment method with the task Show students models for what we are asking to do Show students models for what we are asking to do Give descriptive feedback about student performance Give descriptive feedback about student performance Dont over-rely on just one mode of assessment such as formal unseen examinations Dont over-rely on just one mode of assessment such as formal unseen examinations Use a variety of assessments Use a variety of assessments SOME THOUGHTS

Assessment should always have more to do with helping students grow than with cataloging their mistakes. Carol Tomlinson
